Ear health.

Today Tuesday the 2nd of August.Some students from Lynfield college came to teach us about ears and how to keep our ears clean,healthy and safe from damage.

Are you a person that listens to really loud music?

Because if you are you have this post to help you stop!

Ears are important for humans because we all love music and we all love watching television.

But unfortunately people are beginning to lose there hearing.

Why is that?,You may ask.Because people are listening to music or things that are over 85 decibels

This is a photo of the hears in your ears.The one one the left hand side is a perfectly good hear.But on the right hand side that is a badly damaged hear in your ear.

Can my hear damage get fixed?,you may ask.Well the answer is no.

Here is a experiment that you can do.

                                                              what you'll need:
                                                             Pipe cleaners

Start off by brushing through your pipe cleaners. But do a nice slow gental one because its acting like it is below 85 decibels.Then after that brush through it so hard. When you brush through it so hard its like over 85 decibels. Which acts like your music is super loud.

After that you try to fix the pipe cleaner. Ahh do you get it now? The pipe cleaners acts like ear hears.When you try fix it.The pipe cleaner can not be fixed.

It is very easy to lose your hearing in your ear.Your ears can help you with learning and watching videos.

The next time I would like to learn about your vision.

                                          This really convinces me to look after my ears

Here is some advice on how to look after our ears.

1.Wear earplugs when you are at a concert or singing lesson.

2.When using the lawnmower.Put some ear muffs on.

Turn it down, walk away and Protect your EARS!

Maths Place value war

                                                         Maths place value war game
                                                   Looking for a maths game to play with cards?
           Well you're in luck cause im going to explain to YOU how to play this place value war game
               
                                                                            How to play:
So you need 2 people and cards.Make sure that the cards only have Ace to nine.No Jack,King,Queens or tens.Next you have to give out your cards equally so that each player has the same amount of cards.

Make sure you don't look at the numbers on your cards in your pile.Then each player flips over 2 numbers to make a 2 digit number.

Make sure you say what is on the cards like this:Eight tens and eight ones.The first number you put out represents the tens and the second number represents the ones.The person who had the highest number wins and the rest of the players give there cards that they flipped over to the winner.

If two people have the same numbers.They have to add another number to make a 3 digit number.For example:Angelina has 56 and Samuel has 5 tens and six ones as well.When you have the same number as somebody else they have declared war.If Angelina puts 8 down she will have : 5 hundredths,Six tens and Eight ones.Which makes 568.Then Samuel puts down 2.Samuel will have : 5 hundredths,Six tens and Two ones.

Angelina has declared war which means she won.So she collects all cards.She doesn't collect all your cards.Just the ones you have flipped over.Here is a little tip : Keep your winning cards to the side so that if you run out of cards you can use your winning cards

Cyber safety

                 
Hello if you want to be cyber smart keep on watching. Being cyber smart is very important because a lot of people don't even realise what they are posting on the internet. So here is a slide I  made about my digital footprint. Are you being cyber safe?

Samoan language week.

                                       In week 5 we had Samoan language week 2016.
                               Here is a post of what happened on Samoan Language week.

On Monday we went to the taste of Samoa.We got to see and taste things from the lovely Samoa!Me and Vika's favourite things were the Jewelry and koko from Samoa.The koko was very nice.Me and Vika thought it was so nice that we felt like we were in heaven!

He is a little picture of the koko table.At the bottom right of the photo you can see the beans for the koko. The beans are also made for chocolate in Samoa.Some people didn't really like the Koko or the taste of the Koko bean.It was because they bean kinda tasted like burnt toasts.

This is a photo of Vika wearing something that the people of Samoa will wear for dancing.In the background you could see some Samoan props/things.The props and bags were very lovely and they were handmade!My favourite bag was this coconut bag where you could put water into that bag from the waterfall.

This is a photo of Poe peeling Taro.Samoan people use tin cans to peel taro.We got to try and peel the taro with the tin can.The Samoan people cut the can.Then they use it to peel taro.I think that the can would be easier to peel a taro instead of a knife or grater.

On Wednesday we also had a Samoan independence day.We got to taste a Samoan banana.

This is a photo on the last day of Samoan language week.On Friday we had a Samoan assembly.They did a play called Sina & the Eel.They also sung some song and done some dances.After the assembly we got to eat some chop suey and rice and it was AMAZING! I loved the Samoan language week because it was full of Samoan traditions.What do you like about the Samoan culture or the Samoan language week?
